Back to school....back in action

Okay...so it's been a long, fun, exciting summer filled with a new baby, snacks, the beach, snacks, visits with friends, snacks and not to mention some cocktails here and there :) So anyway I am now back in school and the summer is over :( BUT this means 3 months until my WEDDING!! :)crazy!
I just gave birth to my daughter, Brielle, on June 3rd and at that time I was weighing in at 199!! (Okay sometimes the scale said 200 but at my last dr. visit I was 199 so that's what I'm sticking to!) But anyway 3 months later I am down to 167.2 which is where I am going to start my 2nd round of WW to lose the last 25 that I want to in time for my wedding day :)
I have also added the P90 workout routine into my diet/schedule. I am in week 5 of the program and have def. lost inches and toned up in the process. It's a great program and I def. recommend it to anyone and everyone. The only downside to it is that it's time consuming for sure...BUT well worth it. I try to look at the hour to hour and a half a day as "me time" and try to enjoy it the best that I can..

But anyway I will be posting and checking in as frequently as I can....hopefully everyday to post my food from the day before and any tips or new things that I have found....

So if you're in a diet slump (like I was until this morning) then maybe you can re-motivate with me and get back into the WW groove :)

Intention and Purpose

Image
Intention + Purpose = Results  in·ten·tion a thing intended; an aim or plan Learn to pronounce a thing intended; an aim or plan. pur·pose Learn to pronounce the reason for which something is done or created or for which something exists. Purpose is the object to be reached, or reached for, by your actions. It's the bigger picture. It's the why.  Intention is the specific motion to move toward it. Sounds pretty simple and makes sense to me BUT there are a million different things that get in the way of putting these two simple words into action.... I have had so many intentions of doing so many things in my life the past few years but just couldn't get myself to buy into the purpose.... the purpose being ME.  Intentions to lose weight, exercise, save money, plan trips, blog, end bad relationships, strengthen old relationships, organize life, find balance, pursue different money making dreams, make a podcast, read more books, be in the now, breathe, slow down, blah blah blah
